Default S&s 510g cam install(pushrods too long?)

I have a 99 fxd carbed 88 twin cam bone stock. Put a 510g S&s cam setup and now seems pushrods are too long.. everything installed properly I am baffled, something with tappets maybe? Supposed to be bolt in.. have adjustable rods now but before I install I want to figure out the issue. Any help appreciated

Intake and exhaust pushrods swapped? Exhausts are longer.
